Sodium reacts to chlorine and gives NaCl. The balanced reaction is given below:

2Na + Cl₂→ 2NaCl. Two moles Na reacts with one mole Cl₂ and produces two moles of NaCl. Atomic mass of Na= 23, Molar mass of Cl₂= 71, molar mass of NaCl=58.5.

So, 46 g Na reacts with 71 g of Cl₂ and produces (2 X 58.5)g = 117 g of NaCl. As per question Na reacts completely which means Na is the limiting reagent. So, number of moles of Na reacts = number moles of NaCl produced.

NaCl produced= 819 g= (819/58.5) moles= 15.69 moles. Therefore, 15.69 moles = 15.69 X 23 g=360.87 g of Na reacted.

Predict whether aqueous solutions of the following substances are acidic, basic, or neutral:
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

A. Acidic

B. Neutral

C. Basic

D. Acidic

E. Basic

Explanation:

The reaction of salts with water to give aqueous solutions which are either acidic, basic or neutral is known as salt hydrolysis. Salts that are produced from the reaction of strong acids and weak bases give acidic solutions. Salts that are produced the reaction between weak acids and strong bases give basic solutions. Neutral solutions are obtained from salts produced bynthe reaction of strong acids and strong bases.

The hydrolysis of the given salts are shown below:

A. AlCl₃ + 3 H₂O ---> 3 HCl + Al(OH)₃

The aqueous solution produced will be acidic since HCl is a strong acid while Al(OH)₃ is a weak base.

B. NaBr + H₂O ----> HBr + NaOH

The aqueous solution produced will be neutral since HBr is a strong acid and NaOH is strong base as well.

C. NaClO + H₂O ----> HClO + NaOH

The aqueous solution produced will be basic since HClO is a weak acid while NaOH is a strong base.

D. CH₃NH₃NO₃ + H₂O ----> HNO₃ + CH₃NH₂ + H₂O

The aqueous solution produced will be acidic since HNO₃ is a strong acid while CH₃NH₂ is a weak base.

E. Na₂SO₃ + 2 H₂O ----> H₂SO₃ + 2 NaOH

The aqueous solution produced will be basic since H₂SO₃ is a weak acid while NaOH is a strong base.

Wine goes bad soon after opening because the ethanol in it reacts with oxygen gas from the air to form water and acetic acid , t
ryzh [129]

The mass of ethanol is consumed by the reaction of 3.37g oxygen gas is 4.85g

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the chemical reactions is;

CH₃CH₂OH + O₂ → CH₃COOH + H₂O

The mole ratio between oxygen and ethanol in the reaction is 1 : 1

The molar mass of O₂ is 32g / mole. Therefore the O₂ moles consumes in the reaction is;

3.37 / 32

If the molar mass of ethanol is 46.07g/mole, and the ration of reaction in 1 : 1; Then the moles of ethanol consumed is;

3.37/32 * 46.07

= 4.85g

Does the antifreeze you put in a car radiator have a lower or higher freezing point than water
saveliy_v [14]
Hello!
Antifreeze says it in the name. This means that it helps prevent freezing. The liquid that would freeze if you wouldnt use the antifreeze is water. This means that the antifreeze has to have a higher freezing point then water, because otherwise it would only freeze faster!

Hope this helped you!

To what volume should you dilute 50.0 ml of 12 m hno3 solution to obtain a 0.100 m hno3 solution?
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

The answer is "6L"

Explanation:

Formula:

\bold{C_1 \times V_1 = C_2 \times V_2 }\\\\V_2= \frac{C_1\times V_1}{C_2}

Values:

\to C_1= 12 \ m\\\to V_1= 50 \ ml\\\to C_2= 0.100 \ m\\\\\\V_2= \frac{12 \times 50 }{0.100}

   = \frac{12 \times 50 }{0.100}\\\\= \frac{12 \times 50 \times 1000}{100}\\\\= \frac{600 \times 1000}{100}\\\\= 600 \times 10\\\\=6000 \ ml\\= 6 \ L
